I am checking my crawler status with Ahrefs and Moz, Google but it’s showing The HTTP server returned error 406: “Not Acceptable”. This request was likely filtered by a firewall. My website is protected by the Cloudflare firewall.

This doesn’t seem to be related to the JSON:API specification. Especially as you don’t expect Google to index your API.

Hi @shailendra 👋,

It seems like your issue with the 406 error might be more related to Cloudflare’s firewall than JSON  
. This forum focuses on the JSON  
spec, so you might get better help in a web development or Cloudflare-specific forum.
